Terms and Conditions for booking a place for your child on any Activity.

​

Booking and Confirmation

All bookings must be made up to 7 days prior the start of camp.

Booking a place on any Activity, or by the Company receiving part or full payment, constitutes your acceptance of these and any associated Terms and Conditions.

The Company offers an online booking service.  Once the booking form has been completed and submitted, payment in full received and the booking validated by the Company, you will be sent confirmation of your booking via the email address you have provided. Bookings are subject to these Terms and Conditions together with our website terms and conditions. Receiving email acknowledgement of payment is confirmation of your request to book a child on a Jones Tuition Activity, however it does not guarantee a place on the Activity.

All bookings must be made in advance of the selected Activity start date.  For safety reasons we can only guarantee a place on ANY Activity to those who have made a booking in advance. Those arriving on the day will not be guaranteed a place on the Activity.

Before booking please ensure the participant is able to attend the Activity and meets the conditions for such Activity as listed on our website.

Places at all activities will be allocated on a first come, first served basis on receipt of full payment. Bookings made online will take preference over telephone, email and postal bookings.

Anyone booking an Activity must complete a booking form providing emergency contact details and any relevant medical information in full. Any medication must be given to a Jones Tuition Activity Leader before the start of the Activity with the relevant medical disclosures completed.

​

CORONAVIRUS

As a children’s activity provider, we are conscientious in our role to keep everyone who visits us safe.

We are following all of the official guidance issued by government departments and medical authorities, and will continue to do so as the situation develops and more information becomes available. The drop off and pick up procedures will be different for each camp as we have to abide by our risk assessment and also the school venue risk assessment. Some of our camps will be drive by drop off and collection and other camps procedures will involve a 2m queuing system, this may also involve staggered timings for different group bubbles if necessary to avoid risk.

We never want children to miss out on a fun-fuelled break and want our parents to feel that their children are safe in our care.

We are taking responsibility for the impact of coronavirus on the way we run camps and have set up measures to ensure that our camps will be super hygienic and clean. More information on our mandatory procedures will be sent after your booking is complete.

​

Cancellation and Return Policy

Bookings cannot be refunded unless a camp is cancelled.

If you would like to make a change to your booking, please notify the Company as soon as possible. We offer the ability to alter bookings up to 48 hours in advance subject to the availability of places.

In the event that the Company has to cancel a camp for any reason, a credit note for the full value of the booking will be issued to the person who booked or alternative provisions to run the Activity at another time or venue will be arranged and confirmed to all.  If you are unable to attend at the alternatively arranged time and venue and confirm this to Jones Tuition, we will issue a refund to the full value of the booking. 

Customers will be given as much notice as possible and wherever possible Jones Tuition will use all reasonable endeavours to offer alternative opportunities.

In the unlikely event that a Jones Tuition activity would have to be cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control, Jones Tuition may not be able to offer a refund or a payment in kind. Credit will be given where possible.

​

No refunds will be given outside of the notice period if your child is sick, on a trip, on a playdate, snow days, or on holiday, as well as school closures taken out of our control.

​

Altering Booking – Changing Date/Days

At your request we may be able to alter your dates at camp, providing we have spaces at alternative Activities and you notify us of this request 48 hours before the start of the Activity. If there is a difference in price you will need to cover this cost.

​

Price and Payment

The price of any Products and/or Services provided by Jones Tuition shall be as quoted on our website.

Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you confirmation of that order.

The Company accepts credit/debit card as methods of payment.  If you arrive on the day of an Activity without an advance booking we cannot guarantee a place on the Activity.  If a space is available, we may offer it upon receipt of payment in full before the Activity commences.  In such cases payment must be made in cash only and you will be provided with a Receipt by the Activity Leader.  You will be required to complete a form providing all the information that would have been requested if you had made an online booking.  Under no circumstances will a child be accepted on to any Activity before this has been completed and payment in full has been received by the Activity Leader.

​

Surcharge

We will make every effort to contact you if a child is late being picked up. If you are more than 15 minutes late to collect your child from the published camp end time for event at venue, a charge may be enforced at £1 per minute per child. Should a child that has been collected late be enrolled for subsequent days at a camp, Jones Tuition is entitled to cancel any further days/sessions booked and not be able to offer a refund or a payment in kind.

If no contact has been made and no one has arrived to collect the child when 45 minutes after camp closing time has elapsed, then the camp leader will contact Children’s Social Care on 0208 461 7014.

​

Available activities and dates / Programme changes

All information within our literature was correct at the time of print. Jones Tuition will endeavour to let parents know of any changes that might occur after print.

We make every effort to adhere to the advertised Activity programmes but on exceptional occasions these are subject to change in the event of circumstances beyond our control.

No refunds will be made for activities that do not occur. Not every activity printed on our literature or on our website is available at every club, camp or workshop.

​

Drop off and Collection Procedures

Parents/Carers/Guardians must sign a registration book when dropping off and collecting children.

Parents/Carers/Guardians are required to make arrangements for their child to be collected at the agreed time of the Jones Tuition Activity ending. Should Jones Tuition incur costs due to a customer not collecting their child on time, any costs may be passed on to the customer.

The Company must receive written notice if any child will be arriving at an Activity unaccompanied by an adult, or leaving the Activity unaccompanied. This can be done via email to jonestuition.online@gmail.com, or by including the information during the online booking process.

In the event that somebody different is to collect a child at the end of the camp, please ensure that Jones Tuition Activity staff are kept informed of the new collection arrangements.

The Activity Leader’s direct number is displayed on the sign in desks.

For parents that need it, we do offer an extended day service between 0830 and 0900 for a small additional charge of £5 per child per day. We also offer an extended day option until 1530 for the same charge of £5 per child per day.

​

Personal Property

Unfortunately, our staff do not have the facilities to store valuable items securely at any of our sites and therefore it is important that you ensure children do not bring valuable toys and belongings to any  Activity.  We understand that in certain circumstances Parents/Carers/Guardians may require their child to be in possession of a mobile phone.  Any mobile phones brought to any Activity by a child will be collected and stored by a member of staff at the beginning of the Activity and returned at the end.

Jones Tuition will accept no liability for loss, damage, vandalism or theft of personal property owned by you or your child during the performance of our Services, including but not limited to, vehicles, bicycles, jewellery, personal music players, personal games consoles, mobile phones, items of clothing or shoes.

Any belongings left behind after an Activity will be handed to a member of staff at the venue where possible, or will remain at the venue in the Activity space.  However, we cannot guarantee the return of lost items. To facilitate the return of lost property, please ensure that all personal items, including all clothing, are clearly labelled with the participant’s name.

The Company operates a zero tolerance policy to discrimination or bullying of any kind. Every participant involved in an Activity is of equal value and entitled to equal access of opportunity.

Where applicable, a Permission to Administer Medication Form must be completed prior to the Activity date.
